No matter what kind of audience you have in front of you, they will perceive the upcoming event with enthusiasm. Guests of any age will be happy to take part in the launch.
The spectacle is distinguished by its spectacularity and will certainly be remembered by those gathered. Releasing the balloons at the end of the celebration will be a wonderful finishing touch. Balloon launching is suitable for both adults and children. Wedding or children's party, birthday or last call, corporate event or public holiday - it will be beautiful and appropriate for any event.
Promoters actively use the option of launching balloons at many events - the opening of beauty salons, clubs, cafes or restaurants. Among other things, it manages to lift the spirits of the assembled guests and ordinary passers-by.
The launch is quite a bright and large-scale event; helium balloons will quickly fly into the sky, so it should be held outside the premises. Clear weather without precipitation is best. Therefore, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the forecast of meteorologists in advance, and if snowfall, rain or strong wind is expected, then it is better to abandon such an idea and prepare an alternative replacement.
It is worth noting that it is difficult to find a worthy replacement for such an event. Multi-colored helium balloons soaring upward, like a cloud, smoothly rise above the heads of present guests or random passers-by. This magnificent spectacle will certainly attract attention and be remembered for a long time.
In order for your efforts to be justified and the launch to be spectacular, it is very important to correctly calculate the required number of balls. Experienced party planners estimate that at least a thousand balloons are needed. The best option is 2-3 thousand helium balloons. Only in this case will it be possible to achieve a stunning spectacle.
The preparatory stage and the effect of the event resembles the process of dropping balls. The difference lies in the technical subtleties. To reset, heavy balls are needed, since their main task is to go down.
The launching balls must be lighter than air in order to rise upward without hindrance. This is why it is necessary to use helium, an inert gas, to fill the balloons. It is with its help that the balls will be able to take off and get lost in the clouds.
To launch the balloons, you must discuss the procedure with the organizers in advance. Balls can be launched at a certain time or by any command. It is possible to warn guests in advance and draw their attention to the upcoming event, or to make the launch a complete surprise for those gathered.
A huge box is suitable for disguising the balloons, which is most often used at a wedding ceremony. For example, as soon as the newlyweds leave the doors of the registry office, the box opens and the balls rise into the sky. This is a kind of greeting. It is worth remembering that the number of balls that fit in the box is not large.
In addition, you can use a net that is designed for any number of balls, and watching from the side how they languish in “conclusion” and strive to break out is quite interesting.
For sporting and corporate events you can order balloons with a logo or any other inscriptions
Both adults and children love balloons, which is why releasing balloons is a great idea for almost any holiday. Think about how many joyful emotions you can experience while looking at hot air balloons flying in the sky! In addition, it is the launching of balloons that can be turned into a wonderful way to launch a certain number of balloons into the sky.
- Find out the weather forecast for the date of your event - strong winds or rain are unlikely to allow you to launch balloons.
- Choose the right place - if possible, it should be as open as possible: for example, trees standing too close can prevent you from enjoying this beautiful spectacle. And the balloons will cling to the branches and burst.
- Balloons can be launched in a variety of colors! Balloons of the same color or several (2-3) colors look very stylish and impressive.
- Don't forget to charge your camera or video camera so that you can always “revive” pleasant memories!

Symbolically
If you are planning a balloon release for an event where there will be a lot of people, discuss the possibility of making this moment even more original - come up with a figure or use a symbol (logo) of your holiday. Mark the figure, at the appointed moment ask people with balloons to line up and release the balloons to a certain signal.
Generously
The Korean girl Charlotte, in addition to the message with words of support “Be strong,” sent 1000 won with each balloon - this is such a generous charity event, which, if possible, can be repeated.
Grandiose
If you launch at least two thousand balloons, the spectacle will become truly grandiose!
After all, such a ball is an ordinary piece of rubber. The fact that it is round and beautiful does not change anything. And it turns out that we are throwing away this rubber solemnly, in front of all the people, and even with the hands of children. I think this does not add any benefit to our already disappointing ecology. Maybe it’s time for us to ask ourselves this question: is a moment’s fun worth completely turning nature into a landfill?” – wrote Nikolay Voloshchenko from Volokonovka.
According to Archimedes' law
Lifespan of a balloon depends on the material from which it is made: rubber or latex. Some burst quickly and noisily, others are able to live an interesting and, without exaggeration, rich life.
From a physics point of view, the flight of both a rubber and a latex ball is the same:
“The ball rises to the upper layers, cools slightly, and its volume increases four to six times or more with height. And the greater the height, the greater the volume of the ball,” says Physics teacher Pavel Galutskikh.– If a latex balloon is inflated too much, it bursts; if not too much, then its shell stretches, helium molecules come out of it, and air molecules, in turn, fall into the ball. Air is heavier than helium, and the ball becomes heavier and begins to fall down, where the air density is greater. So the ball gradually decreases. As for rubber balls, under the influence of the same factors, as they rise to a height and increase in volume, as a rule, they burst.”
Galutskikh calculated that at an altitude of 10 km, the air density decreases three times compared to the surface of the earth, and the volume of the ball, accordingly, triples. At an altitude of 12 km, the air density will decrease fourfold, and the volume of the ball will increase fourfold. At an altitude of 50 km, the air density decreases by 1,200 times, and here the balloon undergoes its final strength test.
“If the balloon is overinflated, it will burst, and if it is not overinflated, it will live for a long time, although helium, of course, will still diffuse through the shell,” explained Pavel Galutskikh.
50 km from the earth is almost space! And yet, an ordinary latex ball is capable of such feats.

Faster, higher, bolder
In 2007 schoolchildren from Canada launched a helium balloon into the sky, attaching a camera to it. The photo from the highest point was taken at a distance of 35.8 km from the ground.
Last year an American did a similar experiment Robert Garisson. His helium-filled balloon flew higher than 20 km, and also transmitted pictures to the ground, proving that this whole story was not fiction. The balloon burst in the stratosphere, and the camera returned safely to its owner via parachute.
The most famous balloon passenger can be considered Mishka, the symbol of the 1980 Olympics in Moscow. There are many versions about where he flew and where he landed. According to one of them, Misha was found on Vorobyovy Gory, according to another - in the Moscow region, his six-meter shell was torn. Initially, two copies were made, and the one that did not fly was exhibited at VDNKh for some time, and then the rubber product simply rotted away in warehouses.
His fame haunted many. In 1982, American Larry Walters, soaring into the sky on balloons filled with helium, stayed in the air for 13 hours. However, the landing was not very successful - Larry became entangled in power lines and thousands of Americans were left without electricity.
Russian Vitaly Kulikov soared into the sky twice on latex balloons in 2004. The first time he pumped hydrogen into 360 balloons and enjoyed the views from a height of 400 m for 25 minutes. The wind carried the naturalist 8.5 km. The second time he flew 64 km on helium balloons.

In 2008, a Brazilian priest Adelir Antonio de Carli rose on helium balloons. He expected to fly 750 km north-west of his church parish, but instead, after eight hours of flight, the wind ended up 50 km above the ocean waves. Contact with him was lost, and the fate of the Brazilian is unknown.
No matter who and where they fly on balloons, the result is always the same: everyone lands somewhere. Including the balloons themselves. Beauty and romance are behind us, and the inevitable process of decomposition begins for the colorful scraps and deflated shapeless rags that were once balls.
Latex– a natural material obtained from the milky juice of the Brazilian Hevea plant. Therefore, it is destroyed without causing damage to nature; rubber balls are more harmful in this regard. And yet, small balloons that people launch from time to time are much less dangerous for environment than plastic bottles thrown away every day. If a thin rubber ball decomposes in a few months, then a plastic bottle will rot for about 200 years, and an aluminum can will last for half a millennium.
Irina Dudka
I think each of us has done this at least once in our lives - launched a balloon into the sky!
Of course, this is an integral part of either a holiday or an event in honor of the memory of someone or something!
As a rule, small children simply love to launch balloons into the sky. Sometimes we just get angry with them if they did it by accident, but it’s better to really scold them, because we need to start fighting this phenomenon.
You probably haven’t even thought about what happens to the ball when it disappears from sight?
It turns out that “cute” balloons are harmful not only to the environment, but also to representatives of nature!
As of March 29, 2017, a Facebook page called "Balloons Blow" organized a campaign in Cullman County, Alabama to combat intentional balloon releases.
“Balloons can travel thousands of miles, polluting some of the most remote and pristine places on our planet. By their unconscious actions, people cause irreparable damage to nature.”
Many animals do not understand the difference between food and the material from which the balls are made.
“When an animal swallows the material from which the balloon is made, their esophagus becomes blocked and they soon die of starvation.”
“Sea turtles and other sea creatures are known to mistake balls for their food. Sometimes they can become so entangled in this material that they lose the ability to move.”
Moreover, the airy wigs that fall to the surface of the seas and oceans are very reminiscent of jellyfish, the main source of food for sea turtles.
The turtles ingest the deflated balloons, causing them to slowly die.
When we launch balloons into the sky, we must understand that we are causing irreparable damage to the environment.
Any creature on our planet may be at risk of death.
Even those balloons that are made from bio-friendly material also emit harmful chemicals.
Latex balloons are primarily harmful to animals.
Maybe it's time to think about solving this problem?
Firstly, there is simply no need to release any more balloons into the sky.
Secondly, you can organize special groups to clean up the surrounding area.
Don't forget that there are many alternatives to balloons: bubbles, flags and banners.
We hope that this article will become the impetus for a gradual fight against this seemingly innocent action!
Most people who have at least once in their life launched a balloon inflated with gas into the sky, or seen others do it, are interested in the question of how far the balloon flies, what will happen to it, and where it will fall. Some even try to launch a balloon with a letter, which a person must find and forward to the recipient, so that they can find out how far the balloon flew into the sky. But think about the probability that this ball will fall in the city and that it will be found, and what is the probability that a person will want to send something to someone. Yes, the probability is very small, but we heard real stories, where letter balloons were actually found and letters were sent back to the person who launched the balloon. We recommend that you read
WHAT ARE BALLOONS INFLATED INTO THE AIR?
In this case, we are only talking about small balloons that are inflated with gas and launched into the sky, and are not considering large passenger balloons that can be flown. And so, in order to launch a ball into the sky and find out how far it will fly, you need to inflate it with gas. The lightest gas will be hydrogen, but since it is very explosive, it is not used to inflate balloons. After hydrogen comes Helium gas, it does not explode, is non-toxic and has a high lifting force, which allows it to be successfully used in inflating balloons. Of course, you can inflate a balloon with gas from a home stove, but the lifting force of such a balloon will be extremely small.
WHICH BALLOONS FLY THE LONGEST
In this question we will look at two types of ball. The first balloon will be latex, inflated with helium and coated with HiFloat, which creates a film inside the balloon and does not allow helium to penetrate the latex. Without HiFloat, a latex balloon flies for approximately 12-24 hours depending on the quality of the latex and the size of the balloon. The second balloon will be foil-lined and inflated with helium. According to preliminary estimates, such a balloon flies for about 14 days, since the foil does not allow helium to pass through and does not exert pressure on the gas, unlike a latex balloon, which inflates and creates pressure. To find out how long a balloon inflated with helium flies, we conducted tests, see the results below.
What is remarkable is that a balloon inflated with helium flies very far, one might say into the stratosphere. Due to the difference in pressure at sea level (on earth) and in the stratosphere, the gas inside the latex balloon begins to press and inflate the balloon with greater force, which leads to its rupture. The approximate time for a latex ball to reach the height at which it will burst is on average 2-3 hours from the moment of launch.

WHAT IS THE LOADING CAPACITY OF A BALLO INFLATED WITH GAS
To find out what the lifting capacity of one ball is, you can use the following data, where 1 m3 of helium lifts one kilogram of cargo minus the weight of the ball itself. On average, the carrying capacity of one standard balloon inflated with helium will be 3-4 grams. To find out in practice what the carrying capacity of a balloon inflated with helium is, we conducted tests; see the results above.
HOW FAR DOES A BALLON INFLATED WITH GAS FLY?
To answer the question: “How far will a balloon inflated with gas (helium) fly?”, you need to know a lot of data. The flight distance of the balloon will depend on the time during which it will fly, and on the strength of the wind that will move the ball. A lot depends on weather conditions; in a calm weather, a ball can fly for a whole month and fall at the place where it was launched, and in a strong wind it can fly very far. And so, in order to understand how far a balloon inflated with gas will fly, you need to know the time of flight of the ball and the strength of the wind. Let us assume that the wind force throughout the entire flight of the ball will be 3 meters per second, although, in fact, depending on the altitude and weather conditions during the flight of the ball, the wind force will change both up and down. Now let’s calculate: 3m/s * 60 seconds = 180 meters the ball will fly in 1 minute. 180 meters * 60 minutes = 10800 meters (10.8 km) the ball will fly in one hour. 10.8 km * 24 hours = 269 km the ball will fly in 24 hours. 269 km * 14 days = 3766 km the ball will fly in two weeks. The calculation was made based on the fact that the wind will blow with a force of 3 m/s during the entire flight of the ball, but since weather are always different, then it is impossible to assume that the ball will fly exactly that far. In practice, the ball can land a kilometer from the launch site, or it can even circle the entire globe, because the wind strength can be different. Below you will find our practical tests to answer how far a balloon can fly when inflated with gas.
In which direction will the balloon inflated with gas fly? Of course, the ball will fly where the wind blows, but since the wind blows in different directions in different areas and at different altitudes, it is impossible to predict in which direction the ball will fly, one can only guess. See practical tests below.
ATMOSPHERE PRESSURE AT DIFFERENT HEIGHTS
As you can see from the plate, the atmospheric pressure above sea level is 760 mm. rt. Art., and at an altitude of 5 kilometers it is already 405 mm. rt. Art.. It turns out that if a ball flies to a height of five kilometers, it begins to experience pressure inside itself twice as strong as on the ground, and such a difference will most likely lead to the rupture of the ball. Therefore, if you want the ball to fly high without bursting, then you need to pump it with gas in such a way that it has a safety margin for a certain flight altitude. If you want the ball to fly far, try to inflate it with a safety margin of two times and in such a way that it flies no higher than two or three kilometers, otherwise the ball will burst and fall.
PRACTICAL TESTS OF WHERE A BALL INFLATED WITH GAS WILL FLY
How do we test? To find out practically how far a balloon inflated with helium will fly, you need to launch it and control the flight of the balloon. The hardest and most expensive part is controlling where the ball goes.
OPTION No. 1
You can control the flight of a balloon inflated with gas using a mobile phone with the option to track the location of the mobile phone enabled. It turns out that in order to conduct tests that answer the question of where and how far a balloon inflated with gas (helium) will fly, it is necessary:
- Mobile phone;
- SIM card with a positive balance;
- Connected service that determines the location of a mobile phone;
- Mobile coverage area;
- Packaging for a mobile phone so that it does not get wet in the rain
- The number of balls is sufficient to lift a mobile phone.
OPTION No. 2
In some ways it is similar to option No. 1, but instead of a mobile phone, a GPS tracker will be used with the ability to send SMS messages about your location if there is a GSM signal. This option more expensive than the first option, but is more accurate in indicating its location.

TEST #1
dated March 20, 2015
Technical data: Mobile phone weighing 61 grams, 1 latex ball 27 inches, two latex balls 18 inches and 5 latex balls 12 inches. All balloons are inflated with Helium gas and treated with HiFloat. Location requests were made every 10-20 minutes using the MTS "POISK" system. As you can see from the time and place data below, the balls were not always in touch, sometimes they did not get in touch and you had to wait a tedious 2-3 hours until the next session. We assume that at that time they were flying over a remote area where there is no mobile phone coverage. The approximate flight altitude of the balls at the time of launch is 1-2 km above sea level. It was very important that the balls did not fly to a height of 10 km or higher, since the temperature there is 50 degrees and at this altitude the pressure is much less than at sea level, which causes the latex balls to simply burst and the beacon to freeze.

TEST #2
dated April 07, 2015
Technical data: Mobile phone weighing 61 grams, 4 latex 18-inch balloons treated with HiFloat and inflated with Helium gas. Location requests were made every 10-30 minutes using the MTS "POISK" system. If during the first test we inflated the number of balls in such a way that the balls did not rise above 1-2 kilometers and did not burst from the difference in pressure, then in this test we inflated 4 balls, which lifted approximately 100 grams of weight, while lifting the mobile It was enough for the phone to inflate 3 balloons. That is, during this test the balls flew over 10 kilometers in height. The test results are roughly what we expected. The balloons flew about 100 kilometers, from the city of Ivanteevka, M.O., to the city of Yegoryevsk, M.O.
Presumably the flight unfolded as follows: see below. From the data received from the mobile phone, it can be assumed that initially the ball went rapidly up and forward in the wind, reaching a great height, communication with it was lost (from 06:26 to 08:00), having reached an even greater height, one or two balls burst ( strongly inflated) from the difference in pressure and mobile phone began to go down. The phone got in touch at 08:00 in the area of the village. Gzhel, and ultimately, it fell in the area of the village of Barsuki, Yegoryevsky district, Moscow region, and all further requests for location were issued from this area.
Launch location: Moscow region, Ivanteevka city. Start time 06:00 minutes. The weather is cloudy, wind 3-4 m/s NW (which means blowing to the SE).
06:00 - Subscriber "Sharik" is located at the address Moscow region, Ivanteevka, intersection of st. Pervomaiskaya and st. Greenhouse within a radius of 900 meters.

17:00 - Subscriber "Sharik" is in the same place where he was at 10:05.
CONCLUSIONS ABOUT THE LAUNCH OF LATEX BALLOONS
Having carried out two tests on launching a mobile phone on latex balloons, we can draw the following conclusions: if you inflate latex balloons in such a way that they do not rise above 2 kilometers in height and treat them with a special composition, then they will fly for about 10-15 hours, and the flight range will depend on the strength and direction of the wind. The approximate range will vary from 300 to 600 kilometers. You probably thought that everyone says that a latex balloon treated with a special compound flies for up to two weeks, but here it’s only 10-15 hours. Indeed, the balls fly for up to two weeks, the tests carried out above are proof of this, but they fly without a load and only support their weight. If you attach a weight, the ball will fly as long as it holds the weight of the load; calculate how much time it will take you yourself based on the percentage of the ball’s flight time and the loss of lift (see above). So, if you inflate the balloons in such a way that they lift a weight a little more than the weight of a mobile phone, then they will not fly more than 2 kilometers in height and will not burst, but they will fly no more than 10-15 hours. And if you inflate the balloons in such a way that they lift the weight of the load, at least 25 percent more than the weight of the load itself, so that the balls fly longer, then they fly high and burst, which is what happened with our second test (the weight of the mobile phone is 61 grams, the lifting force of the ball is 100 grams). At the same time, not all the balloons burst, but only those that were more heavily inflated. After which the remaining balls began to descend, so the mobile phone simply fell, but not much, since some balls supported it, and the speed of descent was low. It also follows that all the latex balls that you release into the air without a load fly over 10 kilometers in height, burst and fall.
Technical data: GSM tracker mini A8 weighing 19 grams (with moisture protection and garters 23 grams), five foil balls with a carrying capacity of 8 grams in each ball (40 grams total carrying capacity), Helium gas. Location requests were made every 10-30 minutes using the MTS "POISK" system. With such data, the balls rise over five kilometers, which means that the safety margin of each ball should have been more than three times that on the ground. This is because the difference in atmospheric pressure on the ground and in the sky is different, which means the force of gas pressure on the ball from the inside at altitude will be greater. For more details, see the pressure plate at different heights (see above). From the results obtained, it follows that the balls, having reached a certain height, began to experience gas pressure from the inside and the weakest ball burst, which led to the fact that the lifting force was no longer enough, and the tracker began to smoothly decline and fell.
Launch location: Moscow region, Ivanteevka city. Start time is 22:00. The weather is cloudy, wind 3-4 m/s SE (which means blowing to the NW).

CONCLUSIONS ABOUT THE LAUNCH OF FOIL BALLOONS
Based on the launches of foil balloons, we can conclude that a foil balloon flies much longer than a latex balloon, but at the same time has a very small margin of safety. That is, a latex balloon has the ability to expand, that is, stretch, but a foil balloon does not have this ability. Therefore, when launching a foil balloon, the main task is to calculate the flight height of the balloon and inflate it in such a way that the balloon, having risen to a height, does not burst from the gas pressure from the inside. The risks in launching are such that if you inflate foil balloons so that they fly at an altitude of up to a kilometer, then their lifting force will be quite small and the wind will most likely blow them to the ground. If you inflate a foil balloon so that it flies at a high altitude, then you need to inflate so much gas that there is both lifting force and a safety margin remaining so that the balloons do not burst due to the difference in pressure at altitude.
